Space Shuttle Collides With Bridge In New York 157
First time accepted submitter AbrasiveCat writes "While transporting the space shuttle Enterprise to its new home at the Intrepid Museum, a gust of wind caught the shuttle and pushed a wing tip into the South Channel Subway Bridge. With any luck it was just the protective covering that was damaged. Ah, New York traffic."

Mod parent up to +10. There's NOTHING worse than hyperbole. If I had a nickel for every time I saw unnecessary hyperbole, I'd be a BILLIONAIRE by now. If I could jump as over the top as these headlines get, I could out-leap Superman over tall buildings! Excessive use of hyperbole is worse than SATAN rising from the DEPTHS OF HELL, spewing HELLFIRE on everyone!
Or, maybe, just maybe, you need to take a valium. Not sure.

This just in: A SECOND SPACE SHUTTLE HAS JUST CRASHED INTO THE SECOND PIER OF THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE!

I agree. Still too soon to be publishing stories with sensational headlines about aircraft crashing into things in NY.
I'm not trying to be funny or sarcastic.

A priceless relic collides with a heavily used piece of transportation infrastructure?
Thank God the relic wasn't damaged, and the Shuttle should be pretty easy to fix.

That's funny, the damage doesn't look as bad from out here.
